RARE  UK FIRST MONO PRESS ALBUM

Artist - THE BEATLES   Title- HELP

Label- PARLOPHONE

Cat# PMC 1255

Matrix - XEX 549-2 and XEX 550-2

Vinyl- NEAR MINT, ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF VINYL. LOVELY SHINY UNMARKED VINYL TO BOTH SIDES AND AS YOU WOULD EXPECT SUPERB SOUND QUALITY. I HAVE TEST PLAYED AND I WOULD THINK THIS MAY HAVE ONLY BEEN ITS SECOND PLAYING.

Sleeve - EX++ TO NEAR MINT, LAMINATED SLEEVE BY GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE. STUNNING SLEEVE AT 44 YEARS OLD. THERE IS ONLY LIGHTEST OF CORNER  WEAR TO BOTTOM OF OPENING EDGE TO FAULT. THIS IS REALLY INSIGNIFICANT. THERE IS NO CREASING TO LAMINATE,SPINE IS UNCRUSHED WITH FULLY READABLE TITLE ETC AND OPENING EDGE HAS A NICE CLEAN FINISH. REVERSE OF SLEEVE IS IN LOVELY CLEAN CONDITION. BEST EXAMPLE I HAVE SEEN. OUTLINED MONO LOGO TO FRONT ONLY FOUND ON FIRST PRESSINGS.HAS ORIGINAL "EMITEX" LINED INNER SLEEVE.

Labels- NEAR MINT,YELLOW AND BLACK PARLOPHONE LABELS WITH SILVER LETTERING. HAS SOLD IN UK and THE GRAMOPHONE CO LTD TEXT. KT TAX STAMP EMBOSSED TO SIDE 1. ONLY ONE VERY WISPY SPINDLE TRACE TO EACH SIDE GIVES ANY INDICATION THAT RECORD HAS BEEN PLAYED.

BEAUTIFULLY CLEAN COPY OF THIS UK FIRST PRESSING OF SONGS FROM THE FILM "HELP" BY THE BEATLES. IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO FIND A BETTER COPY THAN THIS. I RARELY ENTHUSE ABOUT RECORD AND SLEEVE CONDITION BUT THIS ONE IS AN ABSOLUTE STUNNER.OUTLINED MONO LOGO YELLOW AND BLACK PARLOPHONE LABELS WITH SOLD IN UK AND GRAMOPHONE CO LTD TEXT AND FIRST PRESS MATRIX NUMBERS.
